The Sierra Nevada mountains are an outdoor-lover’s paradise. This painting was inspired by my many hikes in the Sierras over the years and my passion for the great outdoors. The painting has a childlike, whimsical quality to it (which is why I'm delighted that the painting sold this past week to a couple who wanted the painting in their baby's nursery). The painting is rhythmic, colorful, and defined throughout with dark outlines of rocks and trees and mountains. It expresses the childlike wonder I experience when I am in the mountains.
